My wife has just taken up a job and I am planning to apply for her IR1/CR1. Can her being employed in her home country cast a shadow over her immigrant visa application? In other words does she need to prove that she intends to immigrate to the US and thus has NO ties to her home country and her taking up employment negatively impact how USCIS sees her intent to immigrate?

Ok so she can freely continue her employment in her home country while the process is going on correct?

Absolutely 

YMMV

Keep in mind the whole process can take more than 1 year so it's perfectly fine for her to work in the meantime. When we did my K1 I was working in my home country and never the embassy gave me any issue about it. Obviously I quit my job after my K1 visa was approved. Don't worry about that. Good luck!
