Maybe it could be the less of either extreme and they just quit and go work somewhere else? If there has been a mass exodus of NSA employees the last 5 years I'd believe it, but I don't believe that is the case.

I suspect most NSA employees put up with it because their salaries are considerably higher than they could hope to achieve in the private sector, and they would rather be the spies than the ones being spied upon. Snowden, a fairly unremarkable sysadmin, was allegedly taking home compensation of around $200k pa. To be honest, even I'd probably turn a blind eye if I were being paid that much.
