I always put the face and rear over the sides, with the tops and bottom inside all four. I think it's structureally stronger, easier to glue-up without fasteners, and especially, the top and bottom pieces help square the glue-up. On top of that, if you cut 3 extra top and bottom pieces per cabinet, you have ready made, exact size braces.
