Diocesan priests and religious priests perform the exact same ministries of the priesthood such as working in a parish, high school, university, retreat, social outreach, etc. The only true difference between a religious priest and a diocesan priest is that religious priests take the 3 evangelical counsels: the vow of obedience to their superior (they don't need to swear allegiance to and obey any diocesan bishop unless the order specifies that they do if the work in a certain diocese, but they are required to be obedient to the Bishop of Rome), the vow of poverty (which doesn't necessarily mean poor, just have less things and share everything in community that are not materialistic and distracting), and the vow of chastity. Diocesan priests on the other hand are required to obey the diocesan bishop of the diocese they exercise their ministries, and generally do not take the 3 vows (counsels), but instead promises their bishop of their obedience and celibacy, possibly even some form of poverty as well.
