Can you keep the pillow in first class?

If you are talking about the earbuds that airlines hand out, yes, you are expected to keep those, and if you don't, the airline will throw them away. But if you are talking about the real on-ear or over-ear headphones, no, it would be stealing to take those with you.

Normally airlines allow people to take their own pillows on board as it's useful to have when sleeping and such. However this is just something they allow rather than being a right. So the airline might not allow it on board and in case of a “rather large” size they might make you send it to the cargo haul.

The flat bed in long-haul business and first class cabins is now taken for granted. Most airlines offer this, and have for some time. Layout and quality differ, of course, but the ability to lie flat (or almost flat in some cases) is certainly now the norm.

Do flight attendants prefer first class? No, we do not largely prefer working in economy over first class, nor do we prefer working in first class over economy. Everyone has their own individual preferences, as is true with largely anything else in life.

Therefore, your etiquette shouldn't change all that much compared to when you're flying economy class. Be nice. Courteous. And smile at the nice airport staff when they smile at you (even if they're thinking that the shirt you chose for today's flight is downright hideous).
