If you are in even in semi-big corp you are hired to do one specific thing. If thats frontend you are missing most of the info about BE because well its not necessary to be part of those meetings / watercooler discussions.
That being said If company has its core business in the backend (which in most cases it is), BE sr. dev is more likely to be chosen as Principal.
