When an internal user clicks a link to a Salesforce Tabs and Visualforce site from All Sites or from App Switcher, they’re directed to the site's Classic view and Aloha tabs instead of the site's home page. To direct internal users to the Salesforce Tabs and Visualforce Home page, either create a custom switcher url or define a URL redirect on the Site Detail page of the Salesforce Tabs and Visualforce site.
