Catholics and Protestants have several key differences, other than their worship style and organizational format.
One is that Catholics say Mary was a virgin all her life and Jesus had no brothers and sisters. Protestants say she had children with Joseph after Jesus was born. They disagree on the interpretation of the Bible.

We believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord. Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to hell. On the third day He rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Mainly that the Pope is the successor to the apostles and has special authority.

If you compare Catholicism to extreme Calvinism or Strict Baptists, there are a lot more differences. But compare to Orthodox or the "high" end of Anglicanism, and there are fewer differences.

Communion. Is it actually the body and blood of Christ.

Priesthood. Abstinence and no sharing sacrament of Marriage for Catholics.
