It's worth noting that the NSA is DoD while the CIA is State Dept.

They do have somewhat orthogonal missions (HUMINT vs SIGINT) as others have commented, but never underestimate each piece of the government wanting their own agents.

The CIA is an independent agency, not part of State or Defense or any other executive department.
