You'll get cid along the main story
To get vincent, you need to unlock the safe in the second floor of the shinra mansion. There'll be a note in the room directly left of the main entrance that'll have the clues to the combination. Theres a fourth hidden option in the note as well for the 4th number.
When you get the combination go to the safe and you'll have to fight a boss called Lost Number, when hes defeated take the key from the safe and the summon materia from the ground. Now go down to the basement and go in the door just before the one you went in during the flashback. Vincent is in the coffin
After the conversation walk out the room and he'll come out and join your party

Vincent: Enter Nibelheim and go to the Shinra Mansion. Go to the safe and enter the combination Right 36, Left 10, Right 59, Right 97. Don't go past any number when entering this combination or it won't work. Once you've opened the safe, you will fight the Lost Number boss. Use magic attacks on it, and when it turns into the Red side, use physical attacks. Aeris' Seal Evil limit break works great here. Once you have done so, collect the Cosmo Memory limit break and the Basement Key. Go down to the basement and enter the room next to the library. Talk to the centre coffin and Vincent willjump out. After a short conversation He will go back inside. Wake him again and he wil tell you his name. After this you cannot wake him up any longer. Once you leave the basement after going into the loibrary or not, Vincent will join your party. Vincent is an optional character. You don't have to get him but I strongly advise you do.
Cid: Rocket Town. Just follow the storyline here. You have to have him in your party because he plays a big lead role.
