Don't know about Money Purchase Pension Scheme as I am Final Salary....
Rosters VERY stable with Block Window Protection of +/- 2hrs on start/ end times. I've flown 500hrs in the rolling 12 month period, but I was on a Command Course until August last year. Expect 650hrs, but due to increase with introduction of Carmen rostering.
Can't say about 'average' number of night-stops on the 737 as it really depends on where you are based. I am Manchester and we only have 1 x 737 (will be 3 by the end of the year) and I spend a few nights away each month flying out of Doncaster or Coventry.
Lots and lots of time off if you include leave (42 days). BDOs about 10-12 per month. Flying getting more and more varied on the 737, especially if you are at a charter base; I fly ALL charter routes out of Manchester and low cost if out of the 3 low cost bases (Coventry, Doncaster and Bournemouth).
It's not all roses as has been pointed out and we will have a fight on our hands to keep this an 'employer of choice' and not end up becoming too 'easy' or 'ryan'.
You can still do a lot worse.....

Edited to add;
Training is all paid for unless you are a non-type rated joiner (about £10,000 I believe). Uniform provided, as are ALL hotac and travel costs from base, including simulator!!! Food and drinks provided onboard (some would argue with the use of the term 'food'!!).
Do remember it is a SENIORITY based airline and everyone joins at the bottom, so you will be number 600+ if you join now. Unless expansion continues for a number of years you will spend a long time in the right seat joining now....
