Congrats on your graduation and your job at EY. You probably know that EY just signed an agreement to offer an online MBA for free to every employee. But you are clearly planning for the future and I think you are on a solid path to McCombs. One thing worth pointing out.

So if you get that 600 and apply, You’re not getting into McCombs until you have another trick up your sleeve. You have plenty of time to do much better than that and you need to. My odds for McCombs are if you apply with a 600 score.
Even though your GMAT score of 600 is too low for McCombs, the free MBA offered by your employer–EY–is a much better option as traditional MBA programs are too expensive to justify attending.
GMAT score of 600 is too low for McCombs.
