Chuckling at the idea that trans identity amounts to "wearing a dress" is not a "reasonable conclusion", it's a hurtful caricature. People care deeply about this stuff. People agonize for years about how to present this to the people they live and work with.
Laughing at them and pretending that they have it easy by "wearing a dress" is absolutely bigoted, sorry.

The workplace they described discriminated against the dominant white male identity, and waived it for people who deviated from it in dimensions including gender, sexual preference, and race. It is reasonable to conclude that their workplace would welcome or tolerate a dress-wearer as well, being a deviation of Western male fashion norms, with no comment on its relation to trans identity specifically, or even cross-dressing, which you somehow inferred.
To be charitable, sibling comments have made this inference as well, but I disagree that this inference is reasonable. As you mentioned,
