Hi, overall- can you let me know the industry's opinion on joining a team that is focused solely on macro factors (more of a central research center instead of on a specific team)-- so contributing to the firms views on where the overall market is, but also "owning" a few countries- so looking at a list of countries and opining on credit, fx and overall attractive relative value? Will that set me up for a good gig down the line?

If you are interested in company specific investing ie Google stock or Microsoft bonds or fancier strategies related to that (M&A, spin offs etc) then will not set you up well. If you are interested in being a macro investor then a very nice opportunity. There will be plenty of opportunities to join a specific team/fund down the road that invest in a country's FX, sovereign credit, interest rates (you didn't mention but im guessing), and/or equity index.
It really just is a different focus and usually people are either drawn to one or another
