We have an Exchange 2013 installation ready to go live in our organization. Due to budget restraints, our spam solution will be added in 3-6 months. We are going to use the built-in Anti-spam and malware solutions that are built into Exchange 2013 for the time. We would like to setup a quarantine mailbox for all spam (which can be done with PS) but we would also like to disable all users junk email folders in Outlook. How can we disable all oulook junk email folder settings without the use of GP?

For on-premises Exchange 2013, you can set some specific spam-handling options, on a per-mailbox basis.

Items of note
AntiSpamBypassEnabled
(for your Spam Quarantine idea?)SCLJunkEnabled
(Items meeting SCL threshold ((See next)) go to Junk Email folder, Boolean.)SCLJunkThreshold
(Set SCL threshold for sending items to junk ((See above)).)
I do not have experience with any of these, so test before use in production. ;)
To disable Junk Email folder in Outlook, you must use Group Policy, or customize the Office install. Of those two, Group Policy is the easier and superior solution.

Manually. Why on earth would you not use Group Policy for this?
