Breaking into AM

I have increasingly become interested in AM and therefore have been taking a look at breaking into it. This upcoming summer I will be interning in PWM and I was wondering how it is to jump from PWM to AM. What would be the main differences as far as what I would need to learn or understand? I feel as though PWM is more personal which I like about it but AM provides a more classic institutional role. Maybe I'm way off but this is what it seems like to me. I'm really just looking to see what the main differences are that people don't think about, and how hard it would be to actually switch into.
