you have only been there 7 months. Unless you agreed, when joining, to review salary after X months, I would probably avoid asking for a raise right now. What I WOULD do, is ask for a chat with your boss or bosses and explain to them: 1) you feel you have performed well and exceeded expectations by X, Y and Z; 2) you know lots of people are leaving and you want to take on more responsibility; 3) you know you have only been there 7 months; and 4) you want them to think about giving you a significant raise in 5 months' time.

Then ask them for their thoughts and what you need to do in order to make that happen.

It shows them you are committed, not trying to squeeze every penny just when they are hurting because of departures and makes it VERY hard for them not to give you a raise at the 1 year mark.

At that point if you don't get what you are looking for, you move away.

Good luck!
