Roth IRA question

I have a hypothetical question for the board and wanted to see some different opinions.
If you inherited a Roth IRA fund currently valued ~$30,000 and are about to start your first job with a company that will allow you to put 10% in a Roth and they will match up to 10% dollar for dollar, would you continue to fund the inherited account or solely fund the roth with your future employer and take a percentage of your paycheck and invest in individual stock/Etfs, etc.

Roth 401k at work? And they only match in the Roth?
If so, continue to fund both if you are in a low tax bracket. If not, just stick with match and invest outside or do a pre-tax IRA.

You won't be able to contribute to an inherited Roth IRA. Plus the contributions/matching will go towards a Roth 401k not an IRA.
