When the original Shattered Glass continuity started up by Fun Publications, it began properly with the BotCon 2008 comic story, in which the G1 Cliffjumper of the Classics universe accidentally arrived in the world of Shattered Glass. He first met the SG Autobots and was both confused and outraged by their sheer cruelty. Then he met the SG Decepticons, whom he couldn't believe were as good-natured as they appeared to be. Only after conversing with SG Sideswipe, who had defected to the SG Decepticons, and after witnessing SG Megatron take a bullet for him, was Cliffjumper finally convinced that this truly was a backwards world of heroic Decepticons and evil Autobots.
Following that story, Cliffjumper continued to work with the SG Decepticons throughout the proceeding prose stories that eventually led them all to have some adventures on SG Earth, where everything was just as backwards as on SG Cybertron.
Fast forward a few years to the BotCon 2012 comic story "Invasion", wherein SG Ultra Magnus led an invasion on Cliffjumper's home dimension, the Classicsverse. G1 Autobots and SG Decepticons united to oppose the SG Autobots, who were initially backed up by the G1 Decepticons until they too were convinced of the threat SG Ultra Magnus posed and had to turn on him and side with the good guys to stop him. They failed.
SG Ultra Magnus used the power of an ancient relic known as the Terminus Blade to destroy the entire Classicsverse, leaving only Classics Earth intact and shifted into the SG universe. The only survivors of this cataclysmic disaster were those who were still on Classics Earth at the time. Everyone on Classics Cybertron or anywhere else in that universe met a tragic and untimely end. Once in the SG universe, the G1 Autobots worked with the SG Decepticons in order to adjust this new world that was now their new home.
A small number of SG Autobots were also eventually reformatted by SG Unicron into the heroic Knights of Unicron, who also worked with the G1 Autobots and SG Decepticons. The remaining G1 Decepticons and SG Autobots, however, continued to work independently to scheme and plot their own nefarious plans, ones that the united G1 Autobots/SG Decepticons/SG Knights of Unicron would forever continue to work together to stop.
Basically,

are united as one (I'm using the Wreckers symbol as a stand-in for the SG Knights of Unicron since it's blue, their symbol is just a blue Autobrand), while the

do whatever they want.
There's also some bits of SG Alpha Trion having his own band of loyalists comprising of other SG Autobots and some Beast Wars: Uprising Maximals and Predacons that he recruited in the TransTech universe when he was banished there, as well as some GoBot Guardians and Renegades who crossed over into the Classicsverse, wound up in the SG world during the crisis of "Invasion", and then teamed up with the G1 Autobots and SG Decepticons, but a lot of that is too confusing to go into any further.
