I am using default bootstrap tooltip in my table header. It shows irrelevant behavior, like- it increases the width of the header.
here is the codepen link

$(document).ready(function(){
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip();
});

<h3>Tooltip Example</h3>
<p>The data-placement attribute specifies the tooltip position.</p>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<table class="table table-bordered table-hover table-striped">
<thead>
<tr><th colspan="2"> status (Overall)</th></tr>
<tr>
<th colspan="2" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">
Pending
</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">M</th>
<th data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">O</th>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3"></div>
<div class="col-lg-3"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The fix is to add the tool-tip to an element inside of th/td instead of directly on it. (I have added divs around the text you see in your example)
<table class="table table-bordered table-hover table-striped">
<thead>
<tr>
<th colspan="5">Pre-Recruitment status (Overall)</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th rowspan="2" colspan="2">Status </th>
<th rowspan="2">Candidate</th>
<th colspan="2">
<div data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">Panding Doc.</div>
</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>
<div data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">M</div>
</th>
<th>
<div data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Hooray!">O</div>
</th>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
When a tool-tip is displayed it adds a new div to the markup directly after the element with the data-toggle="tooltip"
attribute on it (Inspect using dev tools to see this happening). Therefore it will break your table layout because a tool-tip will be placed after the table element. If it is done inside a table element the layout will not be affected.
I have forked your codepen with the solution.
