10-14 days is the norm, regardless of the status of the employee.

Yes. In some places, two weeks in arrears. I was an exempt salaried employee on a farm and both salaried and hourly workers were paid on the same arrears schedule.

Most of the places I have worked at pay one to two weeks in arrears -- it primarily has to do with bookkeeping procedures. Some companies contract out their payroll which may add to the time process. As long as the payroll is handled consistently it's legal.
Where I work now, the payroll period ends on a Friday and we get paid the following Thursday.

Yes, they can, and many do so. They need time to process payroll (some companies outsource their payroll processing), cut the check, and distribute them to employees or make a direct deposit transmission to the employee's account(s.)

They can legally, although most employers don't, you usually get your pay on the last day of the pay period.
