The pay scales are listed on the XOJET Jobvite site. It appears FO pay may be the same, but the Captain scale is different, but I have not done a side-by-side comparison. The Jobvite site confirms they are only offering the 15/13 or optional Flex-18 schedules...no more 8/6. It is not very clear on vacation earned and when recurrent training is accomplished (days on vs. days off), so you’ll have to ask about that during your screen/interview process.

O2 masks
the X routinely cruises at FL470, I see on FlightAware... what are the O2 mask rules up there?
just wondering about a transcontinental flight of 5-6 hrs and if one or both have to huff O2 the whole time?? Or isn’t it required except if someone uses the lav??

I believe only HR can answer that. Did you get any feedback/reasoning for the TBNT?
