About Complexly: 

Complexly is a media company that produces shows like Crash Course, SciShow, Eons, Ask Hank Anything, Bizarre Beasts, Study Hall, and more. We were founded by John and Hank Green with a mission of creating trustworthy stuff and lowering barriers to knowledge building. The world is not simple. And that can seem like a burden sometimes. The reality is, the human species will never fully understand itself or its universe, let alone any individual. But instead of seeing that as a failing, we'd like to suggest that the process is as powerful as the outcome.

Complexly was a company privately owned by Hank and John Green. As of 2026, they have donated the company to the public as a new nonprofit 501c3 organization, which will help Complexly fulfill its mission for decades to come. Becoming a nonprofit means we will be able to lean into public support, supercharging our mission to make content the world needs, not what is optimized for advertisers. 

We provide competitive benefits that include but are not limited to: 

• 100% company paid Health, Vision, and Dental Insurance for employees, and 50% company paid for dependents. 
• FSA, HSA, and tax-advantaged Dependent Care Accounts. 
• 401k with 4% match after 1000 hours of service.
• Annual professional development stipend between $500 and $1,000 based on hire date. 
• 36-hour work week with half day Fridays.
• Generous vacation time and sick time. 
• 12 weeks paid parental leave from day one.
• Remote/flexible work options.
• Company-wide paid holiday leave between Christmas and New Year's Day.
