Will they need to do any heavy lifting within their company after seeing what's happening on the front lines? Will they (or any items in their care) crack under pressure while undercover?

FRIDAY, JAN. 14

"Fremont Street Experience" - Andrew Simon, president and CEO, Fremont Street Experience, who began his job at this hugely popular Las Vegas attraction at the start of the pandemic, goes undercover to discover and address problems that may be sparking the labor shortage causing significant lost profits. Will the boss "see the light" while perched 100 feet off the ground to help change light panels on its enormous $50 million canopy? How does he handle the sticky situation of scraping gobs of gum from the mall floor for hours at a time? Does he leave anyone hanging during a physically demanding shift at the Slotzilla zip line?

The iconic destination is featured in countless television shows, music videos and films and helps generate over $800 million annually in gaming revenue.

Leite, goes undercover to learn new ways to achieve added growth for her brand and to experience how her new operational changes and innovations are impacting the front lines.
