This is available for residents of Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa. On top of paying for their hotel rooms for a month, the program pays competitive hourly wages, additional peak paydays/times that can add up to an extra $8 an hour, and prize opportunities.
Fallenstein says, "This year, we have some really fun prize opportunities lined up to reward our hardworking employees. Some of these prizes include TVs, iPads, AirPods, Yeti coolers, and more."
