The idea behind this show is that an office worker get isekai-ed into another world and become that same blue collar? Should this be perceived as a parody deconstruction or just a funny premise?

Its more like a "Hey look Japan has this problem with black companies that treat their employees like literal slaves until they die of suicide or overwork, and the system is too short to do anything about it, so let us make a funny anime/LN about it maybe something will happend then ... SPOILER: It wont."

I don't really care about the show but the character design is great.
