Wow! This is unusual! Why did you not file to remove her conditions after the first two years? Technically, she is out of status now and cannot work or remain in the US - technically. But the good news is that you two are still married and you are the same person (I assume) who sponsored her original green card. Thus, while you will likely have some explaining to do about this 10-year period (since the green card clearly states its expiration date and the expiring card should have alerted you that some action is needed, even if you did not know what that action would be), I think that ultimately, she will be granted her permanent green card. So I would not advise her to quit her job now, and all the taxes she paid will be properly credited to her. But you should deal with the issue asap and correct the problem.
