My friend, who works for Pace, tells me that they don't have any pilots on furlough and have not had for a long time. They did furlough about 30 mechanics when the 737 "C" Checks started dropping off. The new hire class starts at the end of March and all four F/O's will go to the B-737.
The only pay I've heard of is for the Dallas operation and their F/O's start at $ 75,000 and Captains are in the $120,000+ range depending on time in grade. They fly the 757 and 767 internationally and the per diem, hotels, rental cars, etc. are supposed to be fantastic. He says they have been on the CASS system for some time now.
That's from 2 pilots who work for them. The rest I can't help you with. Sorry.
