Pros

Engineers here are very smart and knowledgeable, and very easy to communicate with other teams to network and reach out. I would highly recommend the intern networking program to meet teams you're interested in.

There is a process to reinterview for a different team for full time.

Cons

Your location and team placement is completely random, and you may not like either. Take your chances. You can still end up on a front-end engineering team, despite strong background knowledge in other areas.

Advice to Management

It would be incredible if teams interviewed and hired interns in areas they are interested in, not just based on candidate experience or technical knowledge.
