As for XP, every PC has the same amount. I don't care if a player (and there character) is only there for half the adventure. I've played in games when each PC gets different experience based upon if they are their (and even what skill checks they succeed at!) and even though 5E is very forgiving, it sucks to be a level or 3 behind the highest level character.
It makes you feel like a second class character/player. Their is no reason, in my group, to punish players who can't make a game. Missing the game is punishment enough.
