I interviewed at two companies this past week. I've received a job offer from Company A. The interview with Company B went extremely well.

Company A gave me a verbal offer on Friday afternoon, and gave me the weekend to think about it before we discuss the terms on Monday morning. Here are the details:

Company A
Public Sector Consulting
Pay will most likely be appr. $10K higher than Company B.
Generous health insurance plan
Flex spending
401k
Educational Assistance
Professional Development Programs
1 hour commute

Company B
State University
Low pay
Great benefits
Haven't heard back, but I just interviewed with them yesterday
15 min. commute

Company B is more aligned with what I want to do in the long term, which is to be an IT Business Analyst. The role for Company A is more administrative, dealing with contracts, reconciliations, invoices. The role for Company B is technical, involving requirements documents, end user support, etc. What should I do?
